Anyone else having this problem? Any time I try to move an app to SD it just sits there for a little bit and then reboots. I can't update google skymap because I think it's trying to install on the SD too.
I tried searching but my search-fu is weak in this case. I did find someone in some other forum saying he had this problem but it seems to have gone unnoticed.
Anyone? Bueller? Not even a "apps2sd works for me wtf are you talking about?"?
Apps2sd works for me wtf are you talking about?
How about some details?
AT&T or T-Mobile Nexus One?
Bootloader locked or unlocked.
Rooted or unrooted
Stock FROYO? FRF50? FRF72?
What radio?
Using custom cooked rom?
This is me: AT&T Nexus One, unlocked, rooted, official FRF72, apps2sd works just fine, wtf are you talking about?
I'm having this problem too. I suspect it's related to having used cyanogenmod's a2sd for the apps in question - your thoughts on that?
I'm currently running frf50 on an unlocked t-mobile n1. I used someone's pre-rooted Rom. I was running cyanogen 5.0.7, used apps2sd once but decided to undo it and did a nandroid restore. I didn't do a wipe so I'm going to try that and see if it makes any difference.
This is exactly my situation, I suspect even the same pre-rooted froyo (Paul's). Let me know if the wipe helps, and if it does... how do you recover all your stuff?

So I wiped my phone last night, and everything seems to be working now. Started up my phone, logged in, and all my apps started reinstalling. I used SMS backup & restore to restore my SMSs, and everything is mostly back to normal.
How are you moving apps to sd?
I have the exact same problem as the op describes.
Running frf50 on a T-Mobile N1 that I updated the day that build leaked. Not the pre-rooted version I don't believe.
I'd like to figure out exactly how to fix it since from time to time my phone will tell me it's low on space and I end up having to delete several things.
I'm gonna be blunt and say anyone who doesn't want too root their phone really should not be running leak builds of an OS either.
You're just asking for trouble, and without recourse to fix it.
wrong topic
I have not received a text for about 3 days. It started when my sister asked why I hadn't responded to hers. I figured it was just a hiccup on the network. I was able to send her a text fine and make and receive calls fine, but no texts come in. I'm running on CM6.1 and hadn't had any problems with it. I tried uninstalling recent applications, and I even did a factory wipe and re-install of my ROM and mods, as well as all of my apps and I'm still not having any luck. I haven't yet called Sprint, as I'm afraid that they won't know anything or will give me grief for using a non-stock software (perhaps they won't even know); or maybe I'll just stop into the store sometime soon.
Anyway, I've read a few things about this, such as people removing apps and it alleviating the problem. I figured it was just a space issue, like once the phone dips under a certain amount of on-board storage it doesn't download them. I had a similar problem where it wouldn't sync e-mails until I got 2.2 firmware and did App2SD. But my storage isn't really low enough for that to make sense. I tried re-installing the radio that I use to no avail... I just really can't figure this out.
If anyone could give me a leg up on this problem, I'd be really grateful.
Thanks,
Mike
What rom are you running? Is your prl up to date? Current is 60674. Nand, flash a Sense rom, send and receive a few texts, update your profile and prl, then nand restore back to your rom. People have had success with that.

I'm running the latest Cyanogenmod that is listed for my phone, which is 6.1.0, released about 2 weeks before I started experiencing the problem. I have the PRL file and have it on my SD card. Is there any way to do this without flashing to a different ROM?
I had the same problem. Downloaded Fresh ROM. Did a nandroid, flashed Fresh, updated prl, opened maps for a good GPS lock for safe measure, then just restored my nandroid of Cyanogen. Worked flawlessly, and took 20 minutes. Definately the best fix, and the nandroid restores everything to to the way it was, so it's no headache at all.
I'm downloading the stock RUU and I have Fresh downloaded. Nandroid keeps getting stuck on data... about to just go for it.
Don't flash the stock RUU or you'll have to re root.
Well that's not too hard. But what sucks is when Fresh Sense keeps crashing... then when you go to restore, you get an MD5 mismatch... Yeah, it won't restore my backup because it didn't complete and got stuck. Looks like I'm wiping and re-flashing CM6.... again.
Well, somehow I had a working backup from yesterday, the 24th, at some point. It won't be exactly where I left it... but it'll be close. Hopefully I got all the updates I needed via Fresh. Fingers crossed.
The way I got it to work was to flash a Sense ROM. As soon as the ROM loaded, all the texts came in. Also while on Sense, update your PRL.

I've seen other people having this issue, but no fixes as of yet. Does anyone have a fix for this?
I updated my Captivate with the leaked Fugu kernel of Gingerbread. I thought everything was working fine, but it turns out that I'm not able to answer calls. When I get a call, the screen blacks out, and then the calls get forwarded to Voicemail. I can't answer the calls at all. Also, it kills any connection I have at that time, so 3G and the bars go away, and I get the circle with a line through it. Then after about 30 seconds, everything comes back, with four bars. Everything else seems to work fine, and I can make outgoing calls with no problem. Texts work great, MMS, and web.
Ideas??
Baseband: I897UCKF1
Kernel: 2.6.35.7-I897UCKF1-CL273832
Firmware: 2.3.3
Build: GINGERBREAD.UCKF1
If u want to stay on the leaked stock i897uckf1, then i suggest u flash designgears Cognition Beta 2 Kernel (it's rooted of course) and if that doesn't fix the issue, then reflash the KF1 modem (or i897 modem of ur choice.)

I have been having the exact same problem. i did gingerbread with fugu also. i had started a thread here.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1168128 .... and bumped it three times but still no answer. maybe you will get lucky and someone will shine in that knows about the problem.
i am also wondering if the problem happens because we restored contacts and messages. Teejeaux did u restore any contacts and messages using TB or from the export feature in the contacts menu if so then that might be the problem. I restored contacts on both mine and my brothers captivate and we are having the same problem.
Good Luck

and yes restoring data & apps from tibu is cause of forceclose and freeze and lot of times...
not all the time..and when u know what u r doing...so just see after the fresh install everythin works fine..then dont use tibu...
the best n the cleanest..safest way of restroing contats and sms..which i always use...
from contacts..import/export...and export to sd card..u wil hav just one vcf file..having all ur contacts in it..so u can even copy that to ur comp for future use....and restore later when u done flashin..
and smsbackup and restore app by ritesh sahu in market..its free..and it makes a backup on ur internal sd..so copy it to comp or to external sd after taking backup...later after install put that back on internal sd..and install app and restore ur sms...
and i dont use tibu to restore my apps..i always hav the apk's i use ..so i fresh install after the flash...or i download them again from market..so i never had any freeze/forceclose problem ..after any new rom flashin...
Simple troubleshooting:
If <ROM Version Here> starts acting funky (no calls, data, force closes etc..)
I would recommend flashing back to stock - I would also perform a factory reset on the device and even go so far as to format the SD Card (I know might be extreme but you know your phone is def wiped clean)
Re-flash the ROM and don't install/restore anything! Still having issues? Post it on the Q&A of <Insert Rom Name Here> forum or look to see if there is a known issue.
To me this sounds like a bad flash - or the modem didn't flash correctly.
TiBu isn't necessarily bad - but I don't try and use it to restore system data - only application backups/data as your less likely to have issues with force closing.
But... now days I have my app list paired down to just the actual apps I use - so its easier to restore the apps from the Market and restore my Angry Birds saved games
Hi all,
I've been unable to find a post about this for quite some time so I decided to make a threat about it.
I have a recurring problem with my captivate. Usually after about 2 weeks of using a ROM my phone will have 2 issues pop up simultaneously. They seem to always happen together. It seems to happen after my phone shuts off and will not turn back on until I battery pull. Once I do that I am presented with these two issues:
1.) When I try and toggle Wifi it attempts to then simply says "error" underneath it. I have found a few threads about this but no answers
2.) Upon installation OR restoration of any app with Titanium Backup my phone does a soft reboot (goes to spinning CM logo or for ICS goes to the multicolored squares flying around).
Edit: On the newest MIUI it now says "insufficient storage available" instead of rebooting when I try to install an app after the issues crop up, wifi "error" is still the same
I've had these same 2 issues occur with CM7 Stable, RC, and many nightlies, MIUI, and TeamHacksung's ICS build. I believe it may have happened with cognition too but am not positive.
I do not restore any data with TB. Before each flash I wipe system, cache, dalvik, and do factory reset and still this issue occurs without fail after about 2 weeks on any ROM and the only fix I have is to flash a new one.
Nandroid backups DO fix the problem. If anyone is willing to look through logs or something and see what was different I would be eternally grateful and certainly send you something through PayPal
Any help is greatly appreciated and I am willing to try anything at this point. Thanks!

Nah this is the right place. That's a very strange problem you're having though, and I don't know what the exact solution is, if there even is one for this. The only thing I can suggest is going back to stock, and then reinstalling CM7 or whatever you want

Well happened again on newest MIUI. Gonna go back to stock and start over. I'll update the thread if it does or does not happen again.
Unfortunately after using Odin to go back to stock and rerooting/flashing it happened again on the most current build of MIUI. I'm currently at a loss for what to do. Has anyone heard of or seen anything like this?
Thanks in advance

Just curious, have you tried leaving it stock and seeing if it happens on a pure stock ROM? If so it could be a defect with the phone?
If you flash back to pure stock and the issue doesn't come back, maybe try a custom ROM that's closer to stock, not a CM or MIUI or ICS build. I haven't seen this issue, just trying to suggest some solutions.
I had this same problem with my fascinate. I flashed 1.10.21 MIUI follwed by glitch 13.1. This combination used to work, or so I thought. I flashed back to stock, 1.12.1 then a different package of glitch 13.1 and my wifi started working again. I know the captivates and fascinates are somewhat different, but try this out and see if it works.

I guess I could try that, I just like CM7/MIUI so much. Another thing that happens is many different applications start FCing after the problems all begin.
I tried to restore to a nandroid backup I had made before it happened this time and I received an MD5 mismatch which I believe happened last time I tried to restore...
New info:
I have not realized this before but it seems that I start getting a message that says, "Google Talk Authentication Failed", around the same time. Also FCs happen much more frequently. Is there anything I could be doing to cause this?
New Info
Just going to keep this updated with things I have tried in case anyone ever searches for this that has this issue:
Full format of SD card and odin back to stock did not prevent the issue from cropping up on the DarkKnight3 ROM with Icy Glitch. At this point I can only assume it is somehow hardware relatedl
Hello, I'm using Semaphore + CM10 JB for few weeks (installed with your support).
However I have a problem. The stability. My phone likes to resets byself, even few times per day. It happens irregularly. What's interesting, sometimes phone resets to the CWM. Sometimes resets and backs to work, sometimes totally offs the phone (and i need to pull out the battery) or freeze on cyanogenmod start screen (but not on normal start, only when resets)
Sometimes it happens when i'm using the phone, sometimes not. He likes to do that when i'm sleeping (for example, goes to the CWM and discharge the battery by whole night on full bright).
And much smaller, but maybe important issue: when the phone starts, shows the message Warning! A problem was detected with your device. Your device IMEI number is invalid. And invalid IMEI number could cause network issues including the inability to call emergency numbers.
Firstly I installed CM10, i had the problems with the network, but after @xsenman's help (reinstall with older ROM before flashing CM10) everything works correctly and i can see IMEI too. I made an EFS backup in that old ROM, should i use that? This message doesn't intrude me, but i'm just thinking if this could be connected with reseting problems. My SGS works really nice, but that one issue is really annoying.
100 views and really no one can help?
Come on, i feel so lonely
I'd recommend flashing a clean GB stock, restoring your IMEI, flashing CM9 twice and then flashing CM10 ROMs (if you want them lol). Always be sure that you wipe your phone after installs.

thanks for your answer. However, maybe it's not a ROM problem? Maybe some application makes an issue. Is there any log where i can check that?
That IMEI stuff definitely isn't app-caused. I can only repeat my statement above. Don't worry about data, you can backup everything using Titanium Backup and SMS Backup+.
Btw: What ROM are you on?
Best regards

True, IMEI not, but it's not a real issue for me. Actually, i'm absolutely satisfied of my i9000 (maybe flashlight absence, but it's hardware). Everything works fine, but reseting problem makes me nervous when I use the phone as car dvr or for endomondo ect.
I use Cyanogenmod 10, one of october's nightly versions.
So basically you don't want to change anything but you want us to help you? Sorry, that's not the way a community works.
You didn't understand me. My problem is phone reseting. I want to find the reason of the issue. Because without it, i can install new software and still have the same problem.

Since when has this problem occurred? I doubt an app makes a phone reset itself.
Edit: I looked around your post history and you seem to have posted in the semaphore thread. Maybe something is wrong with the kernel?

Thanks for your answer. It's hard to say because I've flash a ROM and out of hand I installed the applications. It's the worst type of problems, because it doesn't happen instantly or regularly. Actually since i wrote the topic, i didn't see the problem, however i saw two-three times the attention about IMEI, so i think, the phone resets, but not seen.
/// amerkiller: you are using i9000 too, could you recommend me any other ROM? Probably I will need to install a ROM and wait, two-three days and check if the ROM makes any issues.
/// maybe, but how can i check it? It looks like work nice, my question in Semaphore's thread was about the features
I use Remics-JB, you can try it out if you want a Samsung touchwiz feel, and apps from the S3.
Slimbean if you want a minimalist ROM.
Hopefully, the problem will disappear.

Edit: regarding the kernel, you can flash Devil and see if the problem persists.

Ok, so i want to reflash my i9000. So - i have JVU's gingerbread ROM, is that correct stock ROM? Should i make the WIPE here? I'm not sure about restoring IMEI. Should i do that in GB's temporary ROM or (as I think) later in JB's? Of course, earlier I need to backup the efs folder with IMEI so i think i should do that in GB's and restore it in CM10 (or in Slimbean which I want to test). And one more doubt. You said flashing CM9 twice. Why is that? And how can I do that if i'm installing the ROM in CWM?

You can find tutorials about flashing to stock.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1102881
Flashing the stock ROM will recover your IMEI number if you currently don't have it and will wipe your personal files. Backup your IMEI while you're on GB and if you lose it, then restore it. Fyi I never lost my IMEI, it's not common. You should flash JB / cm10 twice, ICS/cm9 should be okay after one flash. Remember to wipe if the instructions say so.
When you'll attempt to flash cm10 in recovery, you'll get a warning about partition change. You'll have to chose to flash second time, this time it should work and the phone will reboot into a bootloop. Pull out the battery and enter recovery and flash cm10 again. This time it well install and reboot successfully.

Hi, thanks for your interest
Two days ago I made a re-flash Stock > CWM > CM9 (twice) > CM10
Attention about IMEI doesn't longer appear
I've installed apps. The phone has resets for a one time when I was using some app. It is not a big problem for me if SGS makes that from time to time (maybe some apps are not adapted to the JB very well). However today I used him to record my drive (dailyroads voyager) and when i tried to stop the recording, he doesn't backs to life (just I needed to pull the battery out) and video file was corrupted. But when I was getting back to home it worked correctly. I have no idea why that's happen.

Restarts shouldn't happen that was some unusual circumstance. The video problem is weird, post here if it happens again, lets hope its just bad luck.
Ok, I'll look on it.
I have one other question and maybe you will know.
Call recording. There are two options for use this feature. Simple MIC recording apps and 'two-way call recording' which is much better, however it needs kernel with handle of it. I didn't find anyone for SGS, so I want to use MIC recording. There are many apps in Google Play. However any of them makes 0kB files of record on JB's CM10. When I was using gingerbread it didn't worked too however files were good, but the second side of call didn't hear me.
